Legend of Dragon Son-in-law-Chapter 2302: Sergio

The old man’s expression was entirely captured by Julius Reed’s eyes.

It seemed he had really hit the mark.

Although Trent Marsh and Julius Reed were rivals, they had spoken in Mont City before.

Trent Marsh had expressed all his regrets.

Including the conflict that led to the collapse of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance.

"How did you know? Was he an ancient martial artist, and you too?"

The old man asked.

He was very curious.

Because these two people were formidable, yet looked very young.

Thousands of years had passed, the outside world changed so much, finding someone from the same era felt like meeting a fellow townsman.

"What’s your name?"

Julius Reed suddenly asked.

Such a person is worth remembering their name.

"My name is Chang Feng. I was a guard of the Imperial Heaven Official, following him for many years."

The old man Chang Feng countered with a question: "If it’s convenient, could you tell me how you knew about these things?"

Curiosity makes one increasingly restless.

Always hoping for an answer.

"I was an experiencer of those days, but my identity is special, it’s better you don’t know."

Julius Reed said indifferently.

"I understand! I understand! You don’t have to say."

Chang Feng almost blocked his ears.

In such a scenario, if the other party said something, it would mean death.

To survive, one must learn to ask less.

"Back then, the world was just settling down, yet it was still chaotic. Trent Marsh and Silvio Reed were only two people, and Dragon Dance wasn’t concerned with these matters, thus the Imperial Heaven Official was established."

"Imperial Heaven Official, grandly titled, acts on behalf of heaven. In reality, it was about dividing territories." Chang Feng sighed deeply, seemingly emotional about recalling past events.

"At that time, Silvio Reed was busy reconciling increasingly severe internal conflicts within the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance. Trent Marsh was occupied with handling the relationships between the Netherworld Hall and Divine Realm, and the dragon. Trent Marsh raised dragons, seeking to tame them. Therefore, the task of dividing the world fell onto the Imperial Heaven Official."

"The Imperial Heaven Official was also my master, named Sergio."

The old man cooperated, revealing almost everything he knew.

"Sergio, was the Imperial Heaven Official, held great power! In daily life, he was well-liked, and handled affairs fairly. Under the selection of everyone, with Trent Marsh and Silvio Reed nodding, Sergio became the Imperial Heaven Official."

"The responsibility of the Imperial Heaven Official was to divide the world. The Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance initially was just a bunch of ragtag individuals, they gathered only to divide the world. Now that the world is peaceful, everyone wants to enjoy prosperity."

"And whoever gets the better places, whose land is larger, becomes the source of conflict."

"Once Sergio took office, he and his subordinates started investigating who had made greater contributions, and those with the greatest achievements got more land."

"But what he wanted, was far beyond that. Sergio deliberately allocated large amounts of land to those loyal to Trent Marsh and Silvio Reed, leaving those who joined the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance later with no land to take."

"Conflict erupted instantly."

"Sergio’s methods were truly clever, clever in that he himself held not even a piece of land. When the world was being settled, Sergio was absolutely one of the top ten contributors, in terms of qualifications, he was from the same era as Trent Marsh and Silvio Reed."

"At that time, Silvio Reed was already struggling to mediate conflicts, and then Sergio’s actions escalated the tensions between the old and new factions!"

"And Sergio, even garnered sympathy!"

"He had great contributions, old qualifications, and ended up with nothing. Everyone believed he was fair and selfless, those with ambitions among the martial artists started connecting with Sergio, preparing to support him as the new leader of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance."

"Actually, this is what Sergio wanted. He was a calculating man, forsaking immediate gains for greater support."

"I don’t know when Sergio started colluding with the golden dragon, but that night Sergio clearly stated that Trent Marsh was already trapped in the Divine Realm. The Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance only had Silvio Reed. As long as we supported him, we would end this era of turmoil! Everything would move in the best direction."

"I, as the Guard Commander, agreed. Because I had no choice, I could only follow him. Loyalty is one thing, but the outcome of disloyalty, I knew well. Everyone believed Sergio was a good person, but only I witnessed him exterminating houses."

"At that time, Trent Marsh for some reason, along with Dragon Dance, disappeared. Everyone was talking, and intentions became active."

"Originally with Trent Marsh there, everyone centered on him, even if dissatisfied with Silvio Reed, they would only talk to Trent Marsh. In the era of chaos, Trent Marsh was the King! With him there, no one in the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance dared rebel."

"But Trent Marsh disappeared. This War God-like figure’s disappearance made many people’s intentions active, and they began contacting Sergio."

"At that time, Silvio Reed, to avoid suspicion, had to suppress his trusted aides. The Imperial Heaven Official also forcibly seized large amounts of land"

"But doing so, not only those who didn’t benefit but even Silvio Reed’s people began to harbor resentment."

"Everything was ready, just a call to arms was needed for the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance to change its leader."

"Ha, but unfortunately, Silvio Reed was Silvio Reed! King, is King!"

Chang Feng slapped his thigh, seeming to vent his anger.

But this behavior seemed very off.

"Clearly, you are a traitor, and you were punished by Silvio Reed, why does it seem you’re glad your master failed?"

Julius Reed squinted as he asked.

It’s the feeling of venting anger.

And having a servant, killing their master?

What about loyalty?

In that era, did loyalty really not matter?

Julius Reed instinctively glanced at Jovany Leopold.

It seemed ancient martial artists didn’t really have the concept of loyalty.

"Why are you looking at me?" Jovany Leopold felt something was off.

"Nothing, seeing how young and capable you are, I think recruiting you was definitely the right decision."

Julius Reed reminded himself internally to be wary.

Such people, without loyalty, cannot be heavily relied upon.

"Young brother, don’t laugh at me. Once I tell you, you’ll understand why I hate my master so much!"

Chang Feng squinted his eyes, wiping blood from the corner of his mouth.

This beating made it hard for him to endure.

Fortunately, Julius Reed was lenient, allowing him to live and speak.

"Back then, the golden dragon had already appeared, and the entire Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance was pressing Silvio Reed! But do you know what the result was?"

Chang Feng laughed, seemingly tearing a wound on his lip, quickly covering his mouth, and after a while, he gleefully said, "They failed! Along with the golden dragon, they were utterly defeated, fleeing in panic! Those involved in the rebellion were all played by Silvio Reed! Played by Silvio Reed! Hahaha!"

"Played? Are you glad about it?"

Just then, at the hotel’s entrance, stood a man in a black trench coat.

"You... Mas... Master!" Chang Feng stood up in fright, hiding behind Julius Reed.
